About this place

Paul Smith’s College Visitor Interpretive Center (VIC) offers year round access to nature, outdoor recreation and the arts. With a 3,000 acre property covering the diverse ecosystems found in the Adirondack Park of New York State it is an incredible location to enjoy. Over 25 miles of trails for 3-season walking, strolling, and nature watching convert to a full Nordic ski and snowshoe destination in winter (December 1st – April 1st). Skis or snowshoes and a valid day or season pass are required for winter trail use and may be purchased at the main building. 3 season trail use is free. A mix of public and school programs happen on site throughout the year. Room and spaces may be reserved by private groups. Hike, Camp, Ski, Snowshoe or Paddle.

Notes: Main facility, with the exception of the auditorium, is accessible. Outside deck is accessible, but only through the interior space. Gift shop is not fully accessible. Barnum Brook Trail is mostly accessible. Restrooms are currently being modified to become fully accessible.
